- Dress appropriately for the weather. You will be outside most of the day, regardless of the weather.
- Bring a hat and/or sunglasses (you may also want to wear/bring sunscreen)
- Bring your instrument
- Bring your lunch, a drink, and a snack with your name on each item. PLEASE REMEMBER TO BRING YOUR LUNCH. Thankfully, peanut butter/jelly and bread was there as a back up, as several campers forgot to pack their lunch. We don’t want hungry campers….. They need their energy……….
